To the editor:

This letter is in response to the Midland County sheriff getting arrested for super drunk driving. I lost my license for a year when I got a "driving under the influence" eight years ago. I was labeled as just another drunk driver while the “sheriff just made a mistake,” according to some people.

I would like to know how the sheriff can still do his job when the state takes your license? Maybe the state has different rules for the law enforcement community.
